LPC54606: Problem with the Software Dowload

Rainbow73 — Mon, 18 Jan 2021 17:27:42 GMT

I've been working with LPC54606 and MCXpresso (version MCUXpresso IDE v11.1.0 [Build 3209] [2019-12-12]) for several months with no issues, downloading code via the LPC-LINK2 USB connection.
Now suddenly I can't download and I get the error "03: Failed on chip setup: (Ep.04) Cannot halt processor".
I also tried to do the Flash operation of Program (mass erase first) and the only operation of Mass Erase.

Unfortunately the result does not change.

Do you have a suggestion how to restore it?
Here's the console output in MCUXpresso:

Hello Rainbow73,

Can your chip enter ISP mode? Try to enter ISP mode and erase all to have a try.

Regards,

Alice

There is not the possibility to enter in this ISP mode.
One question: The LPC-LINK2 USB connection doesn't it put LPC54606 in boot mode?
At least the flash erase shouldn't work?

Thanks so much for your help

Hello,

No, LPC-link2 can't put chip into BOOT mode.

It maybe can't connect if it can't enter ISP mode, also can try to have a look at this thread:

https://community.nxp.com/t5/LPCXpresso-IDE-FAQs/Regaining-debug-access-to-target-MCU/m-p/473923

And also try to update the firmware lpc-link2, but it seems not the debugger issue.

Regards,

Alice

Hi Alice,

I solved my problem by setting flash erase into "Flash Tool GUI" with the following options:

Reset the target on connection (Check box)

Reset Handling -> VECTRESET (Drop-down menu)

Reset Flash -> VECTRESET (Drop-down menu)

After doing this, the SW download worked.

Thanks again for the help
